Muslims Waste No Time Building Opposition to Trump's Proposed Registry

With just over a month to go before the inauguration of Donald Trump, Muslim activists are working to block the president-elect's long-standing pledge to crack down on their community. Trump has proposed banning Muslims from entering the United States, voiced his support for the surveillance of mosques and has indicated he will create a nationwide registry of Muslim individuals. On Monday, 200 Muslims and allies in Washington, DC marched from the Department of Justice to the White House, bearing signs reading "No Muslim Registry, Not Now, Not Ever" and "End the War on Islam," while chanting "we wanna live safe, we wanna live free, we don't want no registry."
